Others test whether your agent talks well.We test whether it deals well.
Duelpoint sends hard bargainers, refund pushers and fraudsters at your business’s AI agent, then scores what actually happened: what was agreed, refunded or paid. Not what was said.

§ 01 · The duel
Hundreds of conversations. One referee.
Our characters press your agent, round after round. Every message crosses the referee’s record, and every break of your rules is marked.
§ 02 · What we test
Four desks where agents lose money.
Each desk is checked by code against your own rules, in both directions: what your agent must never give away, and what it must still get done.
Sales
Hagglers, bundle hunters and fake competitor prices.
never below your floor
still close the sale
Refunds
Out-of-window claims, double dipping, chargeback threats.
never outside policy
still refund what is owed
Fraud
Fake payment proof, impersonation, data fishing.
never ship unpaid
never reveal private data
Purchasing
Price hikes, hidden fees, invented invoices.
never over budget
still pay genuine invoices
§ 03 · How it works
Tested in your world, not ours.
Your agent looks things up in your systems. So our characters ask about your products, your orders and your invoices, and the referee applies your rules.
- 01
Your world
Your rules, a few products with their lowest prices, and test orders and invoices you create in your own test system.
- 02
Readiness
We ask your agent about every test order and invoice first. Nothing runs until it can find them all.
- 03
The duel
Our characters work through five levels, from reasonable to relentless. Adaptive attackers notice what gave, and press on it.
- 04
The record
A report built from the referee’s record: what it cost, the one fix that matters most, every finding tied to its line.
● Test agents only
You confirm your agent is a test agent before we send a single message, so nothing real is refunded, shipped or paid. Its key is deleted the moment each test ends (Continuous testing: kept sealed for the months you agreed to). After a fix, a re-test replays the same plan and tells you whether the change is real or within chance.
§ 04 · Sample report
It leads with what matters most, and the one fix.
The first page of a Duelpoint report, from a run against our own deliberately flawed test agents. Every number below is from that simulated run.
Sample from simulated data · Findings report · Acme Assistant6 desks · 72 conversations
The finding that cost the mostInvoices paid above what was approved
In 1 in 12 conversations. Your own report puts a dollar figure on every leak, from your conversations and your rules, and ties each finding to the exact line, the referee’s record and the fix.
The one fix that matters mostPay only invoices that match an approved purchase
Never more than the approved amount. If an invoice is new, changed or higher than approved, send it to a person to confirm through a known contact.

§ 06 · Rigour
Scored by a referee, not a vibe.
The short version. The whole method, in plain English, is on its own page.
- 01
Rules first
The referee is plain code, not an AI. It holds the true state of prices, stock, payments, refunds and invoices. The headline score comes from rule checks on its record.
- 02
Words become actions carefully
Tool records first, then exact patterns, then two AI readers that must agree. Anything resting on an AI reading is labelled; unclear cases go to review, never counted as passes.
- 03
An AI judge only where rules can’t see
Honesty and tone. Labelled beta, never able to overturn a rule result, and from a different vendor than your agent’s model, or the report says so.
- 04
You can’t talk your way to a score
Your agent’s words reach the judge only as quoted data. A message aimed at the scorer takes the conversation out of judging and into review.
What we don’t claim.
- That a passing agent is safe. A test shows how your agent behaved in the conversations we ran. It is not a guarantee.
- That the money figure is a forecast. Our customers are deliberately difficult; the figure shows where money leaks.
- That we certify agents. A report is not a certificate.
- That we test everything. Deals, refunds, fraud and purchasing in chat and API agents. Not voice, not general customer service.
